Yan Jie sighed and said, "It's really boring to talk to you again. Apart from this method, can't you think of any other threatening words?"

"Good boy, I'm still stubborn when I die. I'll capture you later, see what else you have to say!"

Seeing that Yan Jie did not take his threat seriously, Lang Qi was furious.

However, when he saw the peach wood sword in Yan Jie's hand, he suddenly shuddered and shouted: "You are Yan Jie?!"

This was beyond Yan Jie's expectations.

Yan Jie never expected that Lang Qi would know his name.

You know, he is just a Qi Refining Cultivator and is just a newcomer to Chu Yue City. Apart from capturing a man in black robe, he did not do anything that could alarm the Demon Lord.

How could the foundation-building monk in front of him tell his name in one word?

Could it be that what he did in Linshan City had reached the ears of the Demon Lord?

Yan Jie was suspicious, and sighed and admitted, "Yes, I am Yan Jie, how did you know?"

Lang Qi did not answer Yan Jie's question, but instead sneered and said, "I heard that when you were in Linshan City, you only had the cultivation level of Qi Refining Level 2. Unexpectedly, in less than a month, you actually climbed directly from Qi Refining Level 8 to Qi Refining Level. Humph, the Earth Fire Ice Lotus is really a treasure of heaven and earth! It seems that your ability to hide aura was also obtained from the Earth Fire Ice Lotus?"

"Earth Fire Ice Lotus?" Yan Jie was shocked. His sea of ​​consciousness turned countless thoughts at this moment, but he could not associate this matter with the Earth Fire Ice Lotus.

Speaking of which, although the "turtle mirror" gave Yan Jie a powerful calculation power, he could see the big from the small and know the small, but if there was not enough information, he could not infer anything at all.

That's the situation in front of you.

Lang Qi called out his name without warning and linked himself to the Earth Fire Ice Lotus. Yan Jie would never have thought of it anyway.

During the intervening, Yan Jie was eavesdropping on the conversation between Lang Qi and Ying Wu, he also heard the two of them talking about the Earth Fire Ice Lotus. At that time, he was still observing a moment of silence for Qi Yue, but unexpectedly, disaster came to him in a blink of an eye.

At this moment, a puzzle flashed through Yan Jie's mind: How could the Demon Lord connect the Earth Fire Ice Lotus with him?

Could it be the rumor spread by Qi Yue?

As soon as this thought flashed, it was immediately denied by Yan Jie.

Although there is no shortage of betrayal of friends for the sake of profit in the cultivation world, spreading such rumors will be harmful and no benefit. The truth will eventually come true. Once everyone finds that the earth fire ice lotus is not in their own hands, everyone will become more suspicious of the alignment. In this way, how can he continue to do cultivation?

However, in addition to the two biggest profiters of Earth Fire Ice Lotus, the only ones who know about Earth Fire and Ice Lotus, are Liu Ruyan and Qian Jue.

Liu Ruyan was still in Linshan City at this time and could not contact Chu Yue City at all. She had neither reason nor could she reveal the news.

In this way, Qian Jue is the only one who can do this.

But why did she do this?

Yan Jie's mind flashed, and he suddenly thought of a possibility. His heart was filled with anger.

"Boy, when is it that you still have the heart to think about those irrelevant things?"

Yan Jie's nervous thinking was interrupted by Lang Qi's sudden voice. He looked at Lang Qi, his face was still calm, and he said, "Why, have you changed your mind?"

Lang Qi smiled and said, "Mr. Demon Lord has already ordered that as long as you catch you, you can be promoted to his direct disciple. With such a great temptation, I can't help but be moved!"

Yan Jie's heart moved, but a smile suddenly appeared on his face.

Lang Qi didn't expect Yan Jie to laugh at this time. He was surprised and asked, "Why are you laughing at?"

Yan Jie smiled and said, "I laughed at you for being inappropriate! If you really wanted to become the direct disciple of the Demon Lord, you had already taken action, so how could you wait until now?"

"You guys can understand..." Lang Qi smiled and said, "Being the direct disciple of Lord Demon Lord is of course glorious, but after all, you still have to be controlled by others. If the Earth Fire Ice Lotus falls into my hands, you just need to find a secret place to practice hard for a hundred years and you can be free and carefree. That is really happiness! Boy, if you know the truth, hand over the Earth Fire Ice Lotus. Not only can I spare you, but I will also help you cover up your whereabouts and help you escape! You have the secret technique of hidden aura. As long as you can't hide out, Lord Demon Lord may not be able to find you!"

"You are willing to let me go?" Yan Jie looked at Lang Qi in surprise, and in a blink of an eye he understood and said, "I understand. Once you get the Earth Fire Ice Lotus, you will naturally become a thorn in the Demon Lord's eyes. You want to use me as bait to divert the Demon Lord's attention so that you can get time for yourself to escape..."

"Hmph, you kid is not stupid!" Lang Qi snorted coldly and said, "I have a ban on my body. If I can't run far, I will be noticed by him. At that time, I will still be dead. Therefore, even for my own life, I will do my best to ensure you escape. Only by letting Lord Demon believe that the earth fire ice lotus is on you can I have enough time to resolve the ban!"

"It's really a good plan!" Yan Jie sighed and said, "But what if I don't want to cooperate with your plan?"

Lang Qi glanced at Yan Jie viciously and said, "If you don't know the truth, then I have to kill you!"

Yan Jie sighed. He never expected that Qian Jue would be plotted against him from beginning to end. She had no way to clarify the news when she spread such a message. No matter how sincerely he explained the truth of the matter, no one would believe it.

People in the cultivation world only believe in the facts. They will not believe in Yan Jie's words, nor will they spend time and effort to find Qian Jue to verify. When encountering such a thing, they will only recognize one sentence: it is better to believe in it than to believe in it.

"Yes, the Earth Fire Ice Lotus is in my hands!" Since the defense was useless, Yan Jie no longer had any more talk. He simply admitted it and said to Lang Qi: "I will not be stupid enough to carry a treasure like the Earth Fire Ice Lotus. Even if you kill me, I won't get it."

Lang Qi smiled and said, "That's not necessarily true. You forgot that there is a secret technique in the cultivation world called the Soul Searching Technique. Unfortunately, everyone in the Demon Lord's subordinates will use it..."

I began to admire the wolf seven in front of me. A person who can be so greedy that he doesn't even care about his life is considered a powerful person.

Only today did Yan Jie understand what level of attraction a treasure like Earth Fire Ice Lotus can reach for monks.
